Hello all,
I have finally have enough extra cash to purchase one of these bad boys. It all comes down to you guys to help me decide

Ideally, i want an arcade controller that can best authenticate the feel of an arcade for my home computer. Im looking for a controller that will re-create the exact control experience in the arcade for the following games (note these games are the games i would play the most)
Street Fighter
Mortal Kombat
Donkey Kong
Double Dragon
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
The Simpsons Arcade Game
Pac Man
Basically a joystick that can handle complex fighting games (ala street fighter) extremely well, but also can give a nice control to the less complex fighters (ala double dragon)....
I would also love to have good control for the classics like Pacman, Galaga, Donkey Kong, Etc... I know 4ways and 8 ways can be problems.
But between the Hot Rod and the Xarcade which would you reccomend. Please note that X Arcades functionality of playing other systems has no desire from me. Im looking for a MAME Arcade Controller for my computer. One that is easy to hook up and play. The less configuration work, the better.
Does either work without configuration changes? As in, i set it to HOT ROD in mame, and games like street fighter would properly have the right controls just like the arcade? (you know the kicks on the bottom, the punches on the top, what ever it was)...?
Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Alot,
